What is the molarity of a solution that contains 6 moles of solute in 2 liters of solution?Group of answer choices12M3M7M6M

Break Down the Problem

1. Identify the number of moles of solute: $n = 6$ moles.
2. Identify the volume of the solution: $V = 2$ liters.
3. Use the formula for molarity.

Relevant Concepts

The molarity (M) of a solution is given by the formula:

$M = \frac{n}{V}$

where:

• $n$ = number of moles of solute
• $V$ = volume of solution in liters

Analysis and Detail

1. Substitute the values into the molarity formula: $M = \frac{6 \, \text{moles}}{2 \, \text{liters}}$

2. Perform the calculation: $M = 3 \, \text{M}$

Verify and Summarize

• The calculation shows that the molarity of the solution is 3M, confirming the process is correct.

Final Answer

The molarity of the solution is $\mathbf{3M}$.
